Only as the silver sonic wave struck did it shatter the figure's form, causing it to dissolve back into a cloud of green mist.

However, as Demon Cultivator Xu Qinglin brought forth an Azure Scale Shield Magic Artifact to block the explosion of the Silver Thunderball, with a mere thought, the green mist recongregated into a poison snake that lunged at Zhou Chun.

And, almost as swiftly, he also produced a dark green Banner Magic Artifact, which, with a wave, shot out several streaks of dark green magic lights like sword Qi towards Zhou Chun.

Seeing this, Zhou Chun raised his hand to slap his Storage Pouch at his waist and summoned a earthy-yellow shield Magic Artifact in front of him, releasing a dusky aura that formed a Protective Barrier to block the dark green magic lights.

Subsequently, he opened his mouth and spat out a golden rainbow that instantly tore through the air, striking the venomous snake that was coming at him again.

The golden rainbow burst forth, slicing the poison snake into shreds and turning it into a dissipating toxic fog.

But soon, that fragmented toxic fog recongregated into a poison snake that continued to pursue Zhou Chun.

Seeing this, Zhou Chun's expression slightly changed, making it clear that he dared not let it get too close.

In an immediate reaction, he urged Mana into his Silver Bell Magic Artifact, and the crisp sound of bell chimes incessantly rang in the air, wave after wave of silver sonic waves battering against the poison snake.

Meanwhile, the Thunder Python Baibai was also invoking its Thunder Divine Power, spitting out pillars of lightning and thunderballs that bombarded Xu Qinglin, forcing the Demon Cultivator to focus most of his energy on defense.

For a time, the two were exchanging blows, seemingly evenly matched.

But for both parties, this situation was clearly unacceptable.

So after a brief probing and realizing that the other was not an easy target, both sides tacitly began to show their true capabilities.

On Zhou Chun's side, he swiftly slapped his Spirit Beast Pouch on his waist and released the Golden Armor Turtle Bearer, Stone, to undertake the defense and protect himself, thereby allowing him to concentrate more on the offense.

But the Demon Cultivator Xu Qinglin also slapped his Spirit Beast Pouch, unleashing a swarm of dark green flying snakes!

At first glance, these dark green flying snakes resembled the Emerald Crown Flying Serpents domesticated by the Zhou Family, but they each had only a pair of dark green fleshy wings, no crown on their heads, instead sporting a single black horn about an inch long, and were even smaller in size—averaging only about three or four feet in length.

But small as they were, these creatures emitted an aura far stronger than the Emerald Crown Flying Serpents; of the twenty-six flying snakes, even the weakest was comparable to a lower Third Order Demon Beast, and the strongest approached an upper Third Order Demon Beast!

From this, one could deduce the exceptional breed of these dark green flying snakes.

Indeed, upon seeing these dark green flying snakes, Zhou Chun quickly identified their origin.

"Unexpectedly, this man has tamed a swarm of exotic Demon Snakes—the Horned Winged Serpents!" Zhou Chun thought to himself with a tinge of surprise and could not help but ponder his next move.

The Horned Winged Serpent was also a rare variant among Demon Beasts, inclined to live in groups and feast on all kinds of poisons. Highly venomous by nature and fast fliers, they could grow to become Third Order Demon Beasts upon reaching adulthood.

It was said that once their numbers grew to a certain level, they could even bring forth a Third Order Demon Beast, the Horned Winged Serpent King, making them exceedingly rare and valuable.

Even the venom of a second-order Horned Winged Serpent posed a considerable threat to a Purple Mansion Phase Cultivator.

At this moment, as those Horned Winged Serpents were released by Xu Qinglin, a deep hissing sound from his mouth prompted the serpents to spew out a stream of dark green poison mist which quickly merged together to form a dense cloud of toxic fumes.

Then, Xu Qinglin's hands shaped seals and a beam of green light struck the dark green poison cloud, which he directly manipulated into forming a poison python several dozen meters long that pounced towards Zhou Chun.

Though the poison python was still hundreds of feet away, its pungent, nauseating stench made Zhou Chun feel slightly sick.

He knew that the intense poison within the python was no trifling matter and that he might not withstand it.

Thus, he hastily slapped his Storage Pouch, taking out an exceedingly effective Detoxification Pill to hold in his mouth.

Afterwards, he slapped his hand on the Storage Pouch again and threw out a Talisman, which conjured a water-tank-sized fiery gold fireball in midair. With a thunderous blast, the fireball shot towards the poison python.

Boom!

With a massive explosion and rising flames, the fireball burst, and the created inferno engulfed the dark green poison python entirely within it.

Simultaneously, Zhou Chun reached for his Spirit Beast Pouch once more, this time revealing a swarm of fiery red creatures comprised of countless Flying Sky Fire Scorpions within a rushing red cloud.

These fiery red Flying Sky Fire Scorpions were indeed the Demon Insects "Flying Sky Fire Scorpions" Zhou Chun had cultivated before.

Though ever since he had raised several Third Order mystical creatures and acquired the Skyfrost Cold Bees, these previously cultivated Demon Insects had mostly fallen out of use, but that did not mean they were utterly useless.

Right at this moment, as the "Flying Sky Fire Scorpions" were released, they immediately obeyed Zhou Chun's command and showered the Horned Winged Serpents with a barrage of flying needles.

Demon Cultivator Xu Qinglin knew trouble was upon him when he saw this, and he hastily waved the dark green Banner Magic Artifact in his hand, splitting a beam of magic light to form a protective screen around the Horned Winged Serpents.

However, the stinging needles from the "Flying Sky Fire Scorpions" had an especially strong effect against shields and the like, and their synchronized assault was far beyond what his hastily formed light screen could withstand!
